Club Law a Comedy Acted in Clare Hall, Cambridge About 1599-1600: Now Printed for the First Time, from a Ms. In the Library of St John's College, With an Introduction and Notes (Classic Reprint)

Registrary of the University of Cambridge for giving me facilities to copy the Acta Curite and other documents preserved in the Registry: the Town Clerk of Cam bridge for giving me similar facilities in regard to documents now in his charge: the Librarian and Sub librarian of St John s College for the kind arrangements made for me in their Library: and Dr J. R. Green, Librarian of Downing College, for putting the Bowtell MSS. at my disposal at some inconvenience to himself. I have to thank Mr J. R. Wardale and Mr H. M. Chadwick, of Clare College, for their kind readiness to help me and for their interest in my work. It is, how ever, a matter of regret to me that I have not had the opportunity of seeing the Bursarial Accounts of Clare College for the period in which Club Law was produced. Whether they contain any clue to the date of the play is very doubtful, but, at least, possible. As my Notes show, I owe many hints and illustrations of the language of the play to the ever ready kindness and minute knowledge of my friend Mr R. B. Mc Kerrow, the editor of Nashe, and I return him my warmest thanks. G. C. M. S. SHEFFIELD, June,
